New features / Changes:
- UI: The focused parameter in the details panel is maintained after modifying a value/cooking.
This makes manually entering values in the parameter easier. - UI: Improved details panel refresh logic.
- Param: Added support for Horizontally Join to Next Parameter option to Details UI
- PDG: TOP nodes/networks are now lexicographically sorted in the PDG Assewt Link UI.
- Added missing lock/unlock icon for Float3 parameters
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where height fields that were not of the correct Unreal size would be offset when imported into Unreal.
- Fixed Button Strip parameters not behaving as expected
- Chaos/Geometry Collection: Values for the "unreal_gc_collisions_implicit_type" now follow the same order as their corresponding menu entries in Unreal: 0 = Box, 1 = Sphere, 2 = Capsule, 3 = Level Set, 4 = None, 5...
- Added a safeguard to prevent the renaming of HoudiniToolsPackage, as this silently disables them. Renaming them to anything but "HoudiniToolsPackage" is now not supported.
- Prevent the plugin from looking for HDA's ToolsPackage when cooking as this would generate a lot of unnecessary load warnings in the cook logs.
- Fixed reimport failing for .bgeo.sc files.
